verse 1
Bm
Well, The day that carnage came to town
A
We locked and bolted our doors down,
F#
We laid silent on the ground,
G
Hoping we would not be found
Bm
As children moan as the mother cries
A
I hide the fear from my eyes
F#
We creep down the cellar door
G
Underneath the rotting floor
Chorus
Bm A G * A
Ooooooooooooooh, I can't see the light,
Bm G F#
Bm
Well is it day, or has darkness come like am in my brothers fight

Woooooooooooooh' when will days a be done
G * A Bm
Ah said, will we see, will we see the sun
verse 2
Bm
We hold up stock down in the cave
A
Two weeks gone by, when will be saved
F#
The rats go ahead and steal their share
G
For in the darkness we're unaware
Bm
Well, I try to keep the others strong
A
We won't last down here very long
F#
How many lives have our boys gave
G
And have we built our shallow grave
verse 3
Bm
Skin and bones we waste away
A
Two months gone by no light of day
F#
Children rocking back and forth
G
They don't play much anymore
Bm
The smell of death is in the air
A
Our chances are much less than fare
F#
To leave may be our certain doom
G
To stay shelter becomes a tomb
